Life lately and a DIY hair bow

I'm a really big fan of bows. 


I've made several of these bow clips, so it's high time I made a tutorial for it! (Also the bobby pins around the clip were to hold straggles of hair, they aren't connected to the bow itself. :P )

I cut out a square of material:


Folded it in half and then folded the edges in:




After scrunching the middle of the square in, I wrapped a tiny rectangle of the small fabric around the middle of it and then glued a bobby pin to the back of it.




I started my job last week and it went really well! The kids really liked me and I had a lot of fun hangin' out with them. I am so thankful I found a job that worked with my class schedule, as I haven't been able to find a regular one since I've been at school.

On the only day I didn't work that week, I wore this little number.


I shot a video with my friends that day for a project and we spontaneously decided to shoot me doing some stunt and I ended up getting mud on the back, but thankfully it came off without leaving a mark on it.

Anywho, hope your week is going well!

Love, love
